It was a good movie. I enjoyed it.
Actually Dan Brown has said it was based on fact, well heavily suggested it was based on facts.

Only a fool can really believe that 1200 years after Christ walked around Palestine the Crusaders turned up and found evidence of his blood line. The Muslims who always regarded Christ as a prophet had no such evidence. Except for the religious artifacts they were so keen on selling to the Crusaders. And people are still selling the myth today.

Plus Christ lived as a normal man for 30 years. He would of been married at 16, 14 years to have a family. Was he married and a father? 99.9% most definitely. Who knows what happened to his family.

What we have to remember is for over the last 1950 years we have been fed information about Christ by people with something to sell. Whether it's money in the collection box our saving our immortal souls they were selling us something.

Trey is was a fairly good film that needed some concentration to follow.

It was too long and the ending spoilt the whole thing. Pandering to the dumb US market I expect, which is stupid after a film that takes some concentration and intelligence to follow. Not a lot but some. That's why I managed.
